In the aftermath of the incident, the All Indian Cine Workers Association (AICWA) published a strongly written statement condemning what it called “continuous neglect” in the application of fire safety standards on the sets. The association demanded the immediate suspension of the Director General of Film City and the Mumbai Labor Commissioner, alleging gross negligence and collusion that allow production houses to bridge compulsory security protocols.

In an article separated on X, Aicwa also allegedly alleged the possibility of a deliberate criminal fire for insurance fraud, demanding that the investigation also examines whether the fire has been intentionally fixed by producers or the channel to claim insurance money.
